Watch homegrown talent in action today

The Dynamo Academy Showcase is today beginning at 10:30 a.m. at the Carl Lewis field on the University of Houston campus.

The Dynamo U-18s will take on the Dynamo college players in a game that should be plenty interesting, to say the least.

I’m told Dynamo coach Dominic Kinnear will be on hand to eye the talent. These types of games take on added significance for the team as a developmental roster spot is open with the departure of John Michael Hayden.

The sense is that Kinnear might consider filling up that spot with a homegrown player after assessing whatever talent the team picks up in the MLS draft.

Admission is free, and these youth guys would love to have a crowd watching them play.

You might want to keep an eye on Francisco Navas from the U-18s and Tar Heel Alex Dixon from the college team.

Hometown talent is all over Houston made up of different local soccer clubs. One of those local clubs (Texans SC) beat both the U16 and U18 Dynamo teams last Wednesday night. Local soccer talent resides al over Houston.
